<h1>RAM I/O</h1>
<p>This test allocates a heap array and copies data to it from a second heap array. The test allocates the array then copies some data to it. Then, in a test loop, it copies (reads, writes, then reads again) the data from the first array to the second array, until the test duration period is done. The size of the array should be greater than 256 KB, to avoid hitting the CPU cache. The size of the array should be less than 2 MB, to ensure that it fits in memory. A recommended size for the array would be 768 KB. The array is created only once, but it is populated and accessed multiple times. The result is the total KB written, divided by the actual duration of the test.</p>
